The Alberta Association of Marriage & Family Therapy was incorporated in 1995 and exists to promote the profession and practice of individual, couple, and family therapy in Alberta. The Alberta Association of Marriage & Family Therapy is associated with the American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy , an international professional association established in 1942.

Marriage and Family Therapy is a specialized mental health profession that is an evidence-based discipline and is one of the five core mental health professions: family therapy, psychiatry, clinical psychology, clinical social work and psychiatric nursing.

"Like many couples, we have experienced our share of life’s “storms” that can quietly erode a committed marriage relationship and leave us with a sense of hopelessness, even with our strong faith. Fortunately, we were introduced to a therapist through AAMFT who impressed us with his level of professional sociability, unconditional acceptance and non-judgmental listening skills. He gave us the fresh air of hope we desperately needed. Patiently we were encouraged to do the work with the tools provided."

"We learned how to relate to one another again with emotional honesty, respect and dignity."

"The joy, love and healthy interaction we now share are worth all the pain and tears of the months of hard work. Our only regret is that we didn’t know of and utilize this resource earlier."
